My first read of 2025 was a doozy. 

I remember really liking Madison Kate. I'm pretty sure Hades is going to blow her out of the water. 

I can't remember what happened in Madison Kate because my brain disease leaves me with short term memory like a goldfish, so some of it was confusing. Like, am I supposed to know this or not? But I just went with it and figured enough out. 

There's lots of sex, lots of suspense, lots of mystery. I like Hades, I like her 3 love interests. I'm super excited to see how this story unfolds and what happens. 

The audio is again, fantastic. Lucas Webley and Noelle Bridges are phenomenal in this duet narration. I'm so happy to get to listen to them throughout the series.

We love a badass FMC who calls the shots and takes no bullshit. Does Hades need a man? No, but then we wouldn’t get the steamy spicy scenes that Tate James so masterfully creates. Also a motorcycle named Fat Bob? Sign me up!

Like all Tate James books this ends on a massive cliffhanger. Fantastic read, the plot is absorbing and the characters are complex.

I just didn’t like it, the relationships felt a little icky to me specifically with the age gaps and how it was treated. Age gap romance can be great, this just felt predatory and uncomfortable for me.

This was such a good book from start to finish. The characters and plot are interesting. The story is fast enough as to not get boring but not so fast as to lose you. I can't wait to read the next book!
